Good green tea has been a hallmark of Asia for centuries, but it has now gained popularity worldwide, including in our country.

Good green tea is most often prepared from plants grown in China or Japan, where this variety is the most popular and has the richest history. However, it is crucial that it is nurtured in the right conditions and then processed properly. These aspects have a significant impact on the taste and quality of the finished product. Using the high-quality dried herb available at JAVA Coffee, you will discover the full benefits of this type of tea.

Green tea undergoes minimal processing and doesn't ferment, which allows it to retain many of its nutritional benefits. The brewed tea provides vitamins, amino acids, as well as zinc, fluoride, and potassium. It's important to note that the exact concentrations of these nutrients can vary across different types of green tea. This tea is rich in polyphenols, which have antioxidant properties and combat free radicals. As a result, it is believed that regular consumption helps slow down the aging process. Additionally, green tea can help slow the progression of certain diseases, including some chronic conditions, which are a major health concern today. When consumed daily in appropriate amounts, green tea reduces the risk of heart attack, stroke, and high blood pressure. The compounds found in the leaves are also recognized for their anti-atherosclerotic and anti-cancer effects. A noticeable benefit of drinking green tea is its support for the liver, which helps it manage toxins more effectively. Interestingly, green tea may also assist in weight loss.

Dried tea leaves contain theine, which works in a very similar way to caffeine. This means that drinking such an infusion can have a stimulating effect. It is worth mentioning that this mainly happens when the leaves are brewed for a short time - the longer this process is, the more relaxing the tea can be, although at the cost of a more bitter taste.
